Depending on the amount of definition information you need, the SDSF "SMSG" command can be used to get a list of all the active SMS storage groups. This includes "Type", "Status", "LastUser", "Change-Date-Time" and "Description" along with the various counts and space usage statistics. Note that SDSF does not show the more specialized SMS properties like migration thresholds or auto dump/backup settings.
You can run the SMSG command in SDSF REXX to produce custom reports or output, or just issue the command interactively and then use the "SNAP SE" to manipulate the data in ISPF EDIT. There is also the "SMSV" command that can be used to list SMS DASD volumes (either for all storage groups or for a specific storage group). Rob Scott Rocket Software -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Jack Zukt Sent: 17 June 2021 15:56 To: [email protected] Subject: List Storage Group Information EXTERNAL EMAIL Hi, I am trying to extract information from SMS regarding all the storage groups that are defined to one system and all of the associated information for each of these storage groups, including the description, if there is one. As there more then a hundred storage groups defined,doing this using ISMF display/listsys and copy/paste is error prone and a burdensome task. Is there a way to do this with commands and/or batch? Thanks for any help that you can provide Jack ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ================================ Rocket Software, Inc. and subsidiaries ■ 77 Fourth Avenue, Waltham MA 02451 ■ Main Office Toll Free Number: +1 855.577.4323 Contact Customer Support: https://my.rocketsoftware.com/RocketCommunity/RCEmailSupport Unsubscribe from Marketing Messages/Manage Your Subscription Preferences - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/manage-your-email-preferences Privacy Policy - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/company/legal/privacy-policy ================================ This communication and any attachments may contain confidential information of Rocket Software, Inc.
